Default Transponder problems with ATC COMS - Video

Was it a complete failure or reporting incorrectly and they had you
stop mode C?


It was intermitently working, and reporting incorrectly, IIRC. They
just had me stop mode C.

Just curious to see if it was reporting incorrectly and lack of
knowlege on turning mode C off as it was in my situation, do you think
they would have cleared you through Bravo?


Not sure what they would have done in that case. I know Norcal can
see primary targets (no transponder), so they might just have had
me turn it off at that point.
